Production of fibrinogen in transgenic animals

Materials and methods for producing fibrinogen in transgenic non-human mammals are disclosed. DNA segments encoding Aα, Bβ and γ chains of fibrinogen are introduced into the germ line of a non-human mammal, and the mammal or its female progeny produces milk containing fibrinogen expressed from the i...

Zusammenfassung:Materials and methods for producing fibrinogen in transgenic non-human mammals are disclosed. DNA segments encoding Aα, Bβ and γ chains of fibrinogen are introduced into the germ line of a non-human mammal, and the mammal or its female progeny produces milk containing fibrinogen expressed from the introduced DNA segments. Non-human mammalian embryos and transgenic non-human mammals carrying DNA segments encoding heterologous fibrinogen polypeptide chains are also disclosed.
